While reading this book I could not call it a memoir. It started out about Chastity and when she first felt unusual about her gender and the struggles she had to overcome how she felt and how she was going to let her parents know. She was a lesbian for a while before she came out of the closet. She didn’t have an easy life like a lot of children of well-known parents.
As I read I thought her relationship with her parents was somewhat not a happy one. I don’t know why I felt that way but in this book she never talked about them. There were a couple short mentions of them but it was mostly about how she lived, what she did for a career, and who she hung out with but that even seemed somewhat short and sad. One thing that surprised me is that Chastity did go down that path as a singer but that was like riding a roller coaster because she and her band, “Ceremony” tried for four years and never got anywhere. She mentioned she didn’t even ask for any help from her parents. It’s like she was in another world just being Chastity.
The book was mostly about her love triangle relationship between Rachel, herself and Joan. She loved Rachel but she wasn’t happy. Joan was her true and only love of her life who she met at a young age because Joan was a good friend of her mother… For a few years she just fantasized about Joan until she sensed that Joan had feelings for her too. Also, Joan had a form of cancer where she would go into remission for long periods of time. Joan was her mother’s age but that never bothered Chastity. Most of the book was about her feeling for Joan and how close they were. However, Chastity didn’t have the forwardness to end her relationship with Rachel. She kept trying but she kept saying to Joan that she didn’t want to hurt Rachel.
Everything kept going back and forth until Joan was really sick from the cancer. Then Chastity decided she wanted to give Joan all her love. Chastity had a rough time being with Joan as her body was giving up to cancer. It was sad but I feel that this book is more a memorial to Joan, which is alright; however, it wasn’t a memoir of Chastity…… (plus d'informations)
